Directory traversal vulnerability in Oracle Reports 6.0, 6i, 9i, and 10g allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via (1) "..", (2) Windows drive letter (C:), and (3) absolute path sequences in the desname parameter. NOTE: this issue was probably fixed by REP06 in CPU Jan 2006, in which case it overlaps CVE-2006-0289.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2005-2371 is an old Oracle Reports flaw where a remote requester could cause Oracle Reports to write output to unintended file paths. In business terms, an exposed legacy reporting server could let an attacker overwrite files on the application server. Public sources do not provide modern exploitation evidence. Exposure is most likely in legacy Oracle Reports environments, especially systems still running 6.0, 6i, 9i, or 10g and reachable by untrusted users. Current exposure cannot be inferred from the bundle because product inventory, configuration, and patch state are environment-specific. Prioritize if any legacy Oracle Reports server remains reachable by users or the internet. The potential impact is serious file overwrite on an application server, but urgency depends on whether affected legacy software still exists and whether vendor fixes were applied. Mitigation focus: Inventory Oracle Reports versions and externally reachable report services.; Check Oracle CPU January 2006 REP06 guidance for applicable fixes.; Upgrade or patch affected Oracle Reports installations where still in use..
